Higher Vision festival in Navan adds deadmau5, Ejeca, Shampain and more

The one-day electronic and dance festival, Higher Vision, which takes place at Navan Racecourse on Saturday, June 18 will also feature Versatile, Belters Only, Offica and Shannen Blessing.

Higher Vision 2022 has announced a second wave of artists to Ireland’s most exciting one-day electronic and dance festival, which is headlined by deadmau5.

A long-awaited appearance from one of the world’s most ground-breaking headliners, Canada's own Joel Thomas Zimmerman, will provide a festival highlight.

Enjoying international chart success with his platinum-certified single 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff', as well as 'Professional Griefers', 'Sofi Needs A Ladder', and 'I Remember', deadmau5 has also released seven critically-acclaimed albums: an orchestral album where’s the drop?, W:/2016ALBUM/ and > album title goes here < (both reached #1 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Chart), 4×4=12 (recently recognised for having sold over 1 million copies in the US), For Lack Of A Better Name, Random Album Title and while(1<2).

The multiple JUNO Award-winning and Grammy-nominated artist's ability to push the boundaries of his chosen genre grows at an equal rate to his fan base, which amounts to almost 15 million across his combined social media channels.

Dublin hip-hop outfit, Versatile, following a recent sold-out show at the 3Arena, have also been added to the eclectic bill, alongside Belfast DJ legend Ejeca, Under Black Helmet, Shampain, Shannen Blessing and Dublin's Marcus O’Laoire.

Already announced are Berlin-based techno heavyweight Dax J, founding member of the infamous Underground Resistance Robert Hood, plus Intrepid Skin label owner and hard techno powerhouse SPFDJ. These join homegrown heroes Belters Only, who had a recent Irish No.1 and a UK top 5 hit with 'Make Me Feel Good', Offica, Obskür, Chantel Kavanagh and Sarah Mooney.
